Washington Letter to the Ne,v York
World
Last Friday afternoon a package
was received at the White House
addressed to Grover Cleveland,
President. Col Lamont upon
opening it found a handsome hicko-
ry cane, the gift of Samuel Car,
penter, OF Lyman, o. A silver
plate on the handle bore this in
scription, evidently engraved by
Mr.. Carpenters own hand: Zero
yer Cleveland, President. from 49,
IS to 1898" The donor had taken
for granted that Mr.. Cleveland
would berenominated and reelected.
Col. Lamont smiled when he read
the superscription on the plate, and
carried the cane to the President.
That evening Lamont left for New
\ DIRK to meet Gov. Fill, as it is
understood, by appointment. He
returned to-day, and made use Of
the stereotyped phrase that his
conference with the Governor OF
the Empire State had no political
significance whatever" Democratic

exceedingly anxious to head the
Democratic ticket again next year.
He was sincere as any man could
DO in politics in declaring before
his election in favor of the one.
term idea, but since then matters
have undergone a change. 1t has
been constantly repeated by Mr..
Cleveland's opponents that he
could not be renominated or re,
elected. This has nettled him tc
such an extent that he has deter
mined to make the attempt, al
least. Of cour,e Mr.. Cleveland
knows enough about politics &
know that without the backing o.
his own State he will not stand
the ghost ola show. He realizes
flat Gov. Hill is his only serious
competitor at present, and Col. La
mont's mission was unquestionably
that of a peace-maker.
Gov. Hills loyalty to his par
ty," he continued, is so'srong tina
he would support Mr. CLEVELAND
rather than see the Democracy de
feated. The best way to announc,
a union between leveland and Hill
would be by friendly visit from
the Governor to the President, anc
that is what Mr.. Cleveland ha
had in mind for some time. Ate

Gov. Hill may come on and spen,

C A & J R Kelly, Pardoned.

The older citizens of Terrell Co.
, will remember, that in November,
1870, G L Ames, with his circus,
visited Dawson, and that a shoot
lug ARRAY occurred in which G A &
j r Kelly, G T Ames and others,
of the circus, were connected. Ames
was shot and died on the next dav.
David B Oxford, an innocent by-
stander, was killed upon the spot,
All the showmen who took part III
the shooting escaped, being I'M
known to the authorities were new.
er arrested.
The Kelly brothers surrendered
and were tried for the murder of
Ames and acquitted but afterwards
were tried for the killingof Oxford
and convicted Of voluntary man
slaughter. AT the trial the testi-
mony was Of very mixed and CON
Trajectory nature, and SO voIumi-
nous as to cover, over one hundred
pages CT faolscap manuscript. and
after q vigorous prosecution and a
thorough sitting OF the evidence,
the conviction was based upon the
proposition Of law; eff the Kelly's
were at the circus unlawfully, on
that day, and engaged in an affray,
and a murder was committed in
the heat of passion, that it was in
the commission of an unlawful
act"
On the day after the conviction
they escaped Jail and afterwards,
moved to Florida with their fami-
lies, where they have since resided,
made good citizens, raised large
families, holding Offices of trust and
honor, acting in such manner as
merit and enjoy the confidence of
all with whom they come in con-
tact.
About last November a petition
looking to the pardon Of these
men, was started, and some 500
signatures obtained, endorsed by
the Grand Jurors at that term OF
the court, all the county officers, a
goodly number of the Jurors who
tried both cases, Hon. D B Hare
rel who presided at the trial and
the cutire Bar.
Col. j NJ Griggs, who has had
charge of the case, has pressed it
from the beginniug, and his keen
insight into the merits9 of the case
prepared it 80 as to impress every
one that the pardon should he
granted,
On the 30th of April, the Kelly
brothers, in company with Colonel
Griggs and Hon. q L Stevens,
went to Atlanta and surrendered
to the Principal Keeper of the Pen.
itentiary. The Governors attcn-
tion was called tc the fact that they
had voluntarily Surrendered, and
the papers seekln the pardon were
presented by Col. Giiggs in such 4
clever manner that the Governor
ordered the pardon issued upon
the same day.
On last Thursday they arrived
in Dawson, the home Of their child
hood, and were met by large
number of relatives and friends.
The scene was one Of sadness and
JOY, father and sons, sisters and
brothers, friends and ncighbors,
all embracing each other and she'd
ing and mingling their tears OF
JOY.
After spending several days here
they left last Monday for Florida,
their home, where they will spend
the remainder of their lives in
peace. The common verdict is
that Governor Gordon was author
lied to use Executive Clemency in
this case and in doing so, it was not
only an act of mercy, but an act
Of JUSTICE that the verdict was
contradictory to law.

For Honduras.

A gentleman in this city is in receipt of letter from Mir. Wm. R. Myers. of New Orleans, giving the news of the de- par.ure of several Tucson people from that city to Spanish Honduras, in search of the gold fields. It contains sugges- tions that msy be of service to others who find enchsntment in the view that distance lends .o those fieils. Th5 let ter says:
 DEAR SIR:-Your friends left on Wed nesday, December 9th, at noon, for Spanish Honduras, to land at TTuxlllO. They were all we'll. The party consisted of Dennis Loughlin, E. J. Williams, Milmer, Joe Henry, BIri, LOwder, J, F. Zimmerman, and one other who arrived from Chicago on the morning they left. They secured very cheap rates, the cab ID passage costing them only S22 90 each.
 Some of ikese men were here eight days before they could get n steamer, and therefore, in crder that they may avoId such unnecessary delays iu future. write to me about when any other par ties wish to start and I will telegraph you when theytshould leave to get here on tune to take the steamer, two days before she leaves. That will give am pie time to transact any necessary busi- ness here. I can also arrange to meet them at the Southern Pacific depot.
 I have heard from Pat O'Brign and from what he says II is rather uphill work in these mines m Central America. We all think Brazil is the best place, bu. after you arrive you can find out yourself which best suits you. So if any Arizona miners come here l can show them parties who have returned from Central America. aud maps of the country with the locations oithe prinei- pal mining properties in Spanish Hon. duras.

Irregularities of the Malls.

CRITTESDES, ArIz., Jan, 27, 1887. To the Tucson CITIZEN:
 The irregularities in the newspaper mails between Tucson and this place are go frequent thAt daily papers are Of little advantage 10 rs. Your subscrib- CTS at Lochiel and Harshsw have been annoyed SO much that two of us came here yesterday to inquire whether the Tucson daily papers reached Crittenden regularly, thinking possibly the trouble was at some of the intermediate offices on the Star route from Critienden to L0chiel.
 When the mail last evening was open cd by the postmaster at Crittenden, seven newspapers addressed 10 other of fees were found ID the pouch. One of these was California paper addressed t. Olive Camp; another paper contain ,d ~ copy of the DAILY CITIZEN, sd- aressed to Walter Vail, Total Wreck, .A-izons, The remaining i've papers were addressed to equally well known offices, on or near the liue of the South ern Pacific road.

Brigham Young.
Very respectfully,
 BREWSTER CAMERON

The recent telegram announcing that old Brigham Young. the Mormon proph- e;, wBs residing near Lincoln, Ne brasks, preparatory to announcing his resurrection, is supplemented with the following particulars. not given in the report received here:
 The correspondent says that the old man told the story with sincerity that warranted further investigation. A mer- chcnt who formerly did business ID Salt Lake City, drove out to the mansion CD Saturday afternoon and rspped st the door. Receiving no response he started around the house to apply at the rear when through R bay window he saw the form and features of the old man. As Le was unaware Of his presence, the ner- cLaut approached to within few feet of the window. scanning the old mans tGcs closely and stepping back, he i'm mediately pronounced the man to be Brigham Young, whose marked features he had often studied in Salt Lake City, and which, once seen, he says. can never b. forgotten.
 T. IS a well known fact that the elders or the Mormon Church throughout Utah md Arizona of late have been preaching the return of the prophet. Th.s, together with the facts that it was claimed by St. Lotus man some months ago that Young was seen and recognized m London; that a number of prominent Mormons from Salt Lake City lately have been seen upon the streets of Lin coln; that important Legislation IS sbou to be enacted to the detrIment of the Mormon Church, and the veil of mystery with which the prophets death has al ways been shrouded, makes 1t almost certain that the Mormon banners throughout Utah will soon be unturled, announcing that "He IS risen."

A Real Mine.

Mir. D. T. Elmore came in from the Owl Heads yesterday with his regular bar of bullion for shipment, valued at about s3OOO. He will leave st once for New York, Co be absent three or four weeks, and his return will be followed by new hoisting works and machinery for the increased capacity of the mill.
 The properties owned by the company have been thoroughly prospected and all the expense thereof paid out or the ore extracted and worked m the five stamp prospecting mill at the mlne. Now the water level has been reached and such large bodies of good ore opened that work on a larger scale is demanded. The lack of water too has been a ser ious drawback, even for the small works being run, and not one-iourth ot the quantity of ore was worked during the past month that otherSIse would have been crushed, for this reason. The mine will hereafter supply all the neoes- BBry water SO soon as pumps are put ID, and no further trouble from this source Is expected.
 1Hc NhluC OA hAc EAcfNL-a~N been demonstrated, and the work of the past three years has succeeded in deyel- oping a mine of greater magnitude than any one expected to find. The ore body IS very large and rich, ts may be seen from the quality of the ore from the low est workings, four hundred tons of which now on the dump, will average sixty ounces per ton, in silver.
 The work of development has been conducted carefully and economically, yet with an energy that IS bound to achieve success in any pursuit. MT. FL more has pushed the work as fast as possible consistent with business safety snd the output of the mine. His pru- dence and perseverance are now reward. ed with certainty of handsome in- come for an indefinite time in the future and there IS no one who has watched his bon norsble course and enjoys his per sonsl acquaintance that envIes him his good fortune.

The syndicate which has taken up the Golden Gate property is very enthusias- tic Gs 10 the future of the property. The mine is located in the Lost Basin. Mojsve County, A. T, and IS partly developed, though none of the ore has ever been milled. It is said to have asssyed high. As yet the organization is not complete, depending on the acceptance of the property, but no doubt is entertained on that score, as the owner refused S200.- 0O0 cash for the property, conditional on its bsing fully up to his representa- ti0ns. and would sell only an interett to get money to work 1t. The syndicate IS composed of capitalists, not in other mining eDterpuses, and was organized by business men instead of brokers. The stock, 5000 shares. was subscribed in twenty-four hours. The capital stock will be S2,0O0.OO0. and il Is prob able that some of the stock will be put n the treasury. The experts report, on w lich the acceptance depends, Is eI- focted within R short time.-5t. Lotus Globe Democrat.
